INTERESTING PEOPLE
OF
CAMDEN NJ

This
page contains links to pages about people who have contributed to the
flavor of
Camden over the past 389 years...... that's right, 389, because it was
in 1624
that the first comments by people who kept written records were
made.

Here
you find links to the great, the near great, the interesting, and the
evil.
Doctors, lawyers, craftsmen, artists, entertainers, musicians, and
mobsters;
teachers, preachers, bankers, bakers, and undertakers. Policemen,
firemen,
first-, second-, and third-basemen. Infielders and insiders, not to
mention
journalists and numbers writers.

AND,
As I used to say when I was hosting my radio show, "heroes and zeros,
saints and sinners, losers and winners, love-makers and heartbreakers!"

As
with every other aspect of this website, Comments, suggestions, and
material to add to the these
pages are very much appreciated, which is to say, I've started this,
but YOU are more than welcome to be a part of it. If you think someone
should be mentioned here, then do so,
and they will be..... it's as simple as that.

If
your Aunt Sadie took care of half the kids on your block, then TELL the
story.
If Uncle Charlie coached Little League, here is where we tell his
story. If YOU
played baseball with a kids team at Dudley Grange 50 years ago, here is
where it
can, and will be told.

Check out
the
people, click on the hyperlinks to learn more about the world in which
these
people lived, and most
importantly, Enjoy Yourself!Phil Cohenphil552@reagan.com

If you
would like to support the
website, feel free to make a donation Every bit helps and This is
pretty much
funded out of pocket.
The next big project will be a new server, the one currently in use was
built in
2002 and rebuilt in the summer of 2013... I think I'm on borrowed time
with it.

To
donate by check or money order, make them payable to Phillip Cohen, and
mail to PO
Box 2792, Bismarck ND 58502-2792.

This section grew
and continues to grow to a size far beyond what I imagined it would. My
idea of "People of Note" is better defined as "Interesting People", and
Camden sure has had and continues to have them! To make things easier,
I will color-code some of the cells, to make it easier to find people.
As always, suggestions are more than welcome!
